Maja Farrell
Psychodynamic Counsellor
 English & German Speaking

 

Hello, and welcome. My name is Maja Farrell, and I’m a qualified counsellor offering online sessions to adults seeking support, clarity, and a safe space to explore difficult feelings and experiences.

I trained in psychodynamic counselling, an approach that looks at how our early relationships and unconscious patterns shape the way we feel, behave, and relate in the present. Since qualifying in 2012, I’ve supported people through a wide range of emotional challenges, always with warmth, depth, and respect.

My Approach

My style of therapy is empathic, reflective, and relational. I don’t offer quick fixes — instead, I work with you to gently uncover what’s going on beneath the surface and help you understand yourself more fully. I believe that being truly listened to, without judgment, is a powerful step toward change.

I also work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how overwhelming or prolonged stress can affect the nervous system, sense of identity, and everyday functioning.

Areas of Special Interest

I have particular interest and experience in working with:

• Dissociation and a sense of emotional disconnection

• Trauma

• Religious or spiritual abuse, where belief systems or authority figures have caused confusion, shame, or fear

• Narcissistic relationships — both in childhood and adulthood, where emotional needs may have been ignored, manipulated, or invalidated

These areas are often deeply painful and misunderstood. I offer a sensitive and informed space to explore these experiences at your pace.

A Bit More About Me

I work online with clients internationally, offering therapy in both English and German and bring a multicultural perspective to my work.

I am not part of a professional body, but I work to high ethical standards, and I value integrity, confidentiality, and care in every part of the therapeutic process.
